I'm not even sure what it would mean to have the alpha channel participate in any notion of distinguishability---if you draw a transparent red on top of itself several times,...

they = the different alpha values in the seed-vector that you pass into `distinguishable_colors`.

To me, that sounds like behavior that the user won't be able to predict without a careful read of the documentation. On balance I think I prefer the MethodError, as...

I'd be fine with an informative error message.

Right, I'm saying handle RGBA from the Gadfly side, since there's no obviously correct behavior in general. It would be fine to define a `distinguishable_colors` method here that gives an...

Needs a volunteer to implement this.

There's the `invert_rgb_compand` function; I can verify that repeatedly converting `RGB->XYZ->RGB->XYZ` preserves the value. But beyond that, I have no comment; colorimetry is not really my area of strength, here...

Seems like a fine thing to have, but I'm not aware of anyone working on it or even having expressed a desire for it yet.

Really nice diagnosis and analysis, @kimikage. Your instincts are excellent, when you think you have a solution you like I look forward to your proposal.
